Im really afraid for him. We've talked about it and hes been going through pretty hard times. Hes been having heart problems and he had surgery about 2 weeks ago. His ex girlfriend was his life but things didnt work out. She was a mess really. I believe she was 17 when she had a baby and shes 18 or 19 right now (he wasnt the father, her last boyfriend was). She was always bringing him down but he always went back to her (for what reason i dont know). Recently he told me "he wants his life back" and said he made 7 cuts on his arm. Im pretty sure he has a low self asteem because hes always calling himself names. I told him i was there for him and i told him he could call me WHENEVER he was feeling down or had the urge to cut himself. I really just didnt know what else to say or do. All this is happening to someone who i KNOW was an extremely happy person.

You sound like a wonderful friend and I suggest you continue to keep in touch with him. Is it possible for you to talk with his parents. Of course, I don't know either of your ages. That would help. I both of you are in school, could you talk with a friend there? Some way, some how, try to let someone know what is going on with him. You are serious and if he gets mad, so be it. That may be what it takes to save his life. He needs a lot of help (professional) Good luck and God Bless both of YOU

I know what you mean my best friend cut herself all the time. And all I can say is never give up on him help him get his life back on track.
I also know how he fells because I myself cut myself all the time because of **** going on in my life. Thats how my friend thought she would deal with hers. We both stopped. Her scares dont show as much but mine do and all I can do is cry everytime I see them.

you should go out with him and hangout with him ( as friends ) show him how good life is because if you sit around and just talk to him he wont really know what its like anymore

hey well i decide to respon to your question and, say it seems that your friend is depressed over that girl and, the way she did him well he need to get over her move on and, you know he will feel alot better cause if he don;t he is going to cut the wrong vein and, end up hurting himself worse well he need to take care of hisself and, let all his problems go .tell him to let her go .
